Prosecutors want judge to end defense questioning of Cassie on Friday in Sean 'Diddy' Combs trial

R&B singer Cassie is expected back on the witness stand Friday in her ex-boyfriend Sean “Diddy” Combs' sex trafficking trial, with prosecutors insisting cross-examination finish by the end of the day over concerns that the pregnant Cassie is near the birth of her third child.
